mood: teehee // music: chamillionaire - ridin' dirty

Parents will be home tomorrow and actually I need to finish cleaning the house, but first I felt like writing an Entry of Random Pointlessness, Etc.

I got the stuff sorted out with Otakon today -- apparently somehow when Lexi registered both of us and made the payment, despite it showing both of us being paid for, it didn't register me, so we had to make a few e-mails to get everything sorted out. Surprisingly, the pre-reg staff was really responsive, and I didn't have to wait more than 24 hours for them to get back to me with my receipt and a confirmation that I had, indeed, been properly registered and it was all taken care of. I approve.

Everything is set to go except for the two biggest things, namely my plane reservations to Maryland which really just require me and Lexi sitting down at the same time, and my costume preparations. My main cosplay for Otakon will probably be Axel (while I meanwhile finish debating whether it's worth the trouble to craft his spike-ring-things) but I'll probably also bring Vanessa (my main for AWA) along as a break costume since that one's relatively simple and easy.

Did I mention I have a bag of Baby Ruths? Because I do. And it is the most awesome thing ever.

Also: it rained today, just as the sun was setting, and everything was orange and red and peach and pink. This, complete with Sanctuary blasting to keep me company? Best moment ever. I love picturesque, happy moments. Because I'm a sucker, I tell you. I was totally going to go outside and smoke a cigarette in the sunset but being that it was raining I had trouble getting that part to work. Alas.

I finally made it onto Disc 2 of FF7 and jesusfuckingchrist this is the longest game I have ever played. I thought Randy was kidding when he said it would take me AT LEAST a week to finish (I usually finish games within days). In hindsight: playing the game did make AC more enjoyable (I've only seen it.. oh.. five or six times since it came out), for some reason, even though I knew the full backstory beforehand. Also, speaking of: whoever sends me Loz in a box first wins a prize, I don't know what, just do it.

One of these days I will totally get off my ass and do another music post, I swear. Maybe when, you know, PEOPLE STOP DYING.
